Struct ActivationRequest 

pub struct ActivationRequest {
    pub license_id: Uuid,
    pub hardware_fingerprint: String,
    pub machine_name: String,
    pub ip_address: Option<String>,
    pub user_agent: Option<String>,
    pub timestamp: DateTime<Utc>,
    pub nonce: String,
}

Request to activate a license on a specific device.

This struct is sent from the client application to the license server to request activation of a license. It includes hardware fingerprinting and device metadata for license binding and tracking purposes.

Fields

• license_id: Unique identifier of the license to activate
• hardware_fingerprint: SHA-256 hash of hardware identifiers for device binding
• machine_name: Human-readable name of the device/machine
• ip_address: Optional client IP address for geolocation and security
• user_agent: Optional client software/version for compatibility tracking
• timestamp: When the activation request was created (UTC)
• nonce: Unique one-time value to prevent replay attacks

Security Considerations

• The hardware_fingerprint should be generated client-side to avoid transmitting raw hardware data
• nonce prevents replay attacks by ensuring each request is unique
• Timestamp allows detection of delayed or manipulated requests
